DESIGNED TO recognise outstanding design and installation skills as well as inspire installers around the country , the Atlas Installation of the Year Awards is always hotlyanticipated . And , according to Gareth Thomas , sales director at Atlas Glazed Roof Solutions , the standard this time round has been higher than ever .
“ It ’ s been a truly amazing year , with an astonishing range of installations setting ever-higher standards ,” he said . “ The quality of these installations is just incredible and it ’ s so gratifying to see our installer partners really making the most of the Atlas range of products .”
Taking the top spot was Village Conservatories with a stunning L-shaped orangery . Bringing together aluminium , reclaimed brick , glass and two large Atlas
Village Conservatories
lanterns , the design impressed the judges with its clever use of space around the home , great finishing touches and the quality of installation given the challenges it created . The finished orangery shows off the roof to its best , with a sleek minimal appearance reflecting Atlas ’ s ‘ More Sky , Less Roof ’ approach .
Second place went to March 2017 winner Vale Orangeries from South Wales . The judges loved the way the design for a light and airy ultra-modern extension used a full range of glazing products , including the Atlas
Vale Orangeries
Keymer Double Glazing
Flat Rooflight , and cleverly made the most of the space . In third place was Vision Conservatories , who won in May . The design for a home in a Wiltshire village successfully bridged the addition of a contemporary extension to a traditional house , using a bold pyramid lantern to create a striking look . The judges were particularly impressed by the seamless combination of old and new , the use of an otherwise redundant space in the garden and the choice of lantern for maximum light .
This year ’ s winner of the special Innovation Award was Keymer
Vision Conservatories
Double Glazing from West Sussex ; for a one-off extension on a grand , multi-level property combined the clever use of space with a large Atlas lantern to create as much light as possible in an underground extension , which the judges loved .
Congratulations to all this year ’ s winners and , with the monthly competition between Atlas installers as hotly-contested as ever , the team at Atlas is looking forward to honouring even more amazing designs in 2018 .
